Mistakes made by beginner aspirants of RBI Grade B (for Phase 2 Part of exam):

Most of Indian's have mob mentality. Without analysing anything, they will start blindly following others. Similar is the case of Beginner Aspirants of RBI Grade B. Most of them are misguided. They will read various posts in social media and will purchase some books or after watching attractive advertisements they will purchase the higher priced courses dumped with heavy content. Most of the Online platforms will dump the heavy content to sell their courses at higher prices which can be covered in six months or more time, think and tell when you will revise this content or will you be able to revise after Phase I as gap between Phase I and Phase 2 exam will be 15-25 days only. Only specific content can be studied or revised in such a short period.

One thing every aspirant should keep in their mind that specific content and proper guidance are required to crack this exam.

First mistake: They will purchase and start studying following books:

Ramesh Singh for ESI
Bharati Pathak for Finance
Prasanna Chandra for Finance
S.P.Robbins for Management

2nd mistake: they will spend Rs. 10000-15000 on online courses
